[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This thread perfectly illustrates why people are choosing to leave HCOL cities like DC and NYC. Why be house poor and stretch your budget just to make sure your child goes to a good school or you have access to good restaurants or things to do? Reading this thread has really reaffirmed my desire to leave this area and WFH permanently. Thankfully I am in an in demand field and no matter the state of the economy finding a remote job in the event I ever get laid off or fired will be very easy. And like a previous poster said 2020 and the next few years is not the time to be burdening yourself with high house payments or any other liability really. The economic fallout of this crisis has yet to be fully felt and you never know what will happen in the coming months to years. [/quote] Great to be optimistic about your skills. However there is one variable that is very difficult to control - HEALTH! [/quote] Please elaborate. You don’t have to be in a major city to get covid treatment, if that’s what you’re implying.
